Many of us also rely on captions in situations when using audio would disturb others, or on those occasions when we\u2019d prefer to read content rather than watch it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the University of Southampton, we are familiar with Automated Captions in recordings such as Stream and Panopto. Yet, while the quality of automated captions has improved, they are rarely 100% accurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article provides advice on how to correct captions, and how to create transcripts for our videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Correcting captions in Stream or Panopto<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Both Stream and Panopto provide tools for correcting captions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/support.office.com\/f1\/topic\/3cb9acb6-05b2-4f59-a50d-7df61123aa20?redirectSourcePath=%252fen-us%252ff1%252ftopic%252fadd-a-transcript-and-captions-to-your-video-128d62d9-3e29-4a26-864b-f1e39802970e\">How to correct captions for a recording in Stream.<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/elearn.soton.ac.uk\/knowledge-base\/panopto-captioning\/#editing-captions\">How to correct captions for a recording in Panopto.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This built-in functionality is simple and allows any video owner to correct inaccuracies in captions.

Two captions are highlighted due to their short duration which breaks the built in guidance for the amount of time to show a caption.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating transcripts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While caption files are usually text, they tend to include timing information between lines of sentences. This makes for a less fluent reading experience. To create a transcript that we would want to read, we first need to remove that timing information. Patrick Robin in Automation Services made a version of <a href=\"https:\/\/sotonac.sharepoint.com\/teams\/VTT-Cleaner\">Microsoft\u2019s VTT Cleaner, hosted in our SharePoint environment<\/a>. VTT is the caption format used by Microsoft Steam. Having <a href=\"https:\/\/support.office.com\/f1\/topic\/3cb9acb6-05b2-4f59-a50d-7df61123aa20?redirectSourcePath=%252fen-us%252ff1%252ftopic%252fadd-a-transcript-and-captions-to-your-video-128d62d9-3e29-4a26-864b-f1e39802970e#:~:text=this%20feature%20supports.-,Download%C2%A0,-If%20you%20have\">downloaded the VTT file from our stream recording<\/a> we can use this tool to remove timing information from our captions, giving us the content ready to turn into a transcript.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panopto uses the SRT format, but we can use SubtitleEdit to convert the SRT file to VTT format, then use the above tool to get those captions in plain text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once we have the captions in plain text, we can then format them into something more readable. For example, by building the text into paragraphs and <a href=\"https:\/\/web.microsoftstream.com\/video\/8afe329c-00e7-4ee6-8dae-e14addd8b00c\">adding headings to make the content easier to digest<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Caption perfection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While accuracy is paramount there are other ways you can improve your captions even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fix any punctuation issues. For example, \u201cLet\u2019s eat Matt!\u201d has a different meaning to \u201cLet\u2019s eat, Matt!\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aim for complete sentences within a caption. This is better than the last few words of a sentence carrying over into a new caption that starts a new sentence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If there is more than one speaker, add their name each time the speaker changes. This is particularly important for transcripts or when the speaker is off-screen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Find more captioning tips in Meryl Evan\u2019s blog post, <a href=\"https:\/\/meryl.net\/10-rules-you-need-to-create-great-captioned-videos\/\">10 Rules You Need to Create Great Captioned Videos.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Find out more<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/elearn.soton.ac.uk\/knowledge-base\/accessability-servicescaptions\/\">Read our page on captions with university services.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Captions on videos benefit everyone.
